What are the symptoms of hydrosalpinx?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been feeling lower back pain and a heavy sensation in my lower abdomen. I'm not sure about going to the hospital for a check-up, but they said I have hydrosalpinx. Could you please tell me: What are the symptoms of hydrosalpinx?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, since when there is hydrosalpinx, the dilated and undilated parts of the fallopian tube can still be connected, patients often have intermittent vaginal discharge. Infertility is often the only manifestation of fallopian tube obstruction. Fallopian tube obstruction is a major cause of female infertility. The inflammatory causes are based on inflammation. Its formation can be caused by delayed or untimely treatment of acute fallopian tube inflammation, such as incomplete abortion or retained placenta causing inflammation. In some cases with intrauterine devices, secondary chronic fallopian tube inflammation occurs. Long-term inflammatory stimulation makes the fallopian tube thicken, harden, and the lumen becomes adhesive and narrowed, and even adheres to surrounding tissues, thus interfering with the function of picking up eggs and the ability to inject sperm and eggs.
